Marie Curie, known as the 'mother of modern physics', died from aplastic anaemia, a rare condition linked to high levels of exposure to her famed discoveries, the radioactive elements polonium and radium.
Curie, the first and only woman to win a Nobel Prize in two different fields (physics and chemistry), furthered the research of French physicist Henri Becquerel, who in 1896 discovered that the element uranium emits rays.
Alongside her French physicist husband, Pierre Curie, the brilliant scientific pair discovered a new radioactive element in 1898. The duo named the element polonium, after Poland, Marie’s native country.
Still, after more than 100 years, much of Curie’s personal effects including her clothes, furniture, cookbooks, and laboratory notes are still radioactive, author Bill Bryson writes in his book, A Short History of Nearly Everything.
Regarded as national and scientific treasures, Curie’s laboratory notebooks are stored in lead-lined boxes at France’s Bibliotheque National in Paris.
While the library grants access to visitors to view Curie’s manuscripts, all guests are expected to sign a liability waiver and wear protective gear as the items are contaminated with radium 226, which has a half life of about 1,600 years, according to Christian Science Monitor.
Her body is also radioactive and was therefore placed in a coffin lined with nearly an inch of lead.
The Curie’s are buried in France’s Panthéon, a mausoleum in Paris which contains the remains of distinguished French citizens - like philosophers Rousseau and Voltaire.

I’m sure there’s already plenty of whataboutist commentary about statues being pulled down. I was struck by how petulant a response this was and also that the wife was doing all the work.
My mom called from the rehab hospital she's been in to regain her strength. She won't be let out for at least two weeks. It isn't because she's not doing well, it's because somebody came down with Covid and I know how fast that sh*t can spread through nursing homes and rehab hospitals. My mom also has leukemia and there's credible research that people with blood cancers take this the worst.
That’s completely understandable but hopefully the rehab hospital is taking this seriously- I don’t think anyone is going to want to be the next cautionary tale if they can avoid it at all.
Well, yesterday. Watched Southampton beat Man City yesterday, then some racing came on and I was "wow, I think it's a bit crazy that they program in engine failures in simulated racing and, damn the animation on that pit crew is so realistic..." until my son informed me it was live. THE WORLD IS SO FUCKING CRAZY NOW!
I described my symptoms accurately, the doctor I talked to said something to the effect of "those don't sound like classic symptoms, but with this thing it's so hard to tell - you should get tested".

No 1 ended up arriving the 4th instead of the 5th. He and his 2 friends drove cross-country and they were going to spend the night in Tahoe. He said it was crazy crowded so he called when they were leaving Tahoe and I ran out and bought some food to make. Ended up BBQing some salmon and veges along with what he had planned to eat.
Low-key BBQ with the immediate family and then went off to my dark room with the cat who is sensitive to loud noises and prone to seizures and played a bit of No Man's Land while trying to ignore all the illegal fireworks going off in my neighborhood -- the legal ones are much quieter.
Spent the day putting in hay. Nature doesn't read calendars. Lots of people apparently bugged out to go camping or to the coast, and it seemed pretty quiet until evening.
Stayed home and watched a televised fireworks show from a town up on the Columbia river. and listened to most of the neighborhood put on a show that in aggregate exceeded some actual community/event shows I've seen in the past. Easily the most and largest personal fireworks I've ever heard. This was the norm across the region. (And yet locally we had zero fire dept calls for fires or injuries.) The dog did surprisingly well with it, especially compared to the reaction to some recent thunder storms and even squall downpours.
Would have actually been pretty enjoyable if they weren't always going off in the opposite direction from where you were looking at the time. Biggest surprise is how well it subsided after about a half hour after full darkness, when most of the local's budgets were evidently blown up. In the past, the local noise usually has drug on a lot longer.
Quiet get-together for social-D pot luck/bbq with our weekly crew of dinner folks and we watched Hamilton.
I was surprised that it completely lived up to the hype...I'm a fan of musicals, tho, and despite not having listened to a single song prior, I loved it and can see what the hubbub was all about. Just my 2 cents...
I like it, don't love it, but just as when I saw it live (in SF, not with the original cast), I found that the ending felt very powerful despite whatever issues I may have had.
Usually either I or a neighbor a few houses down will buy enough fireworks to blow up the whole neighborhood. He wasn't feeling it this year (he's older and is pretty concerned about covid) and I wasn't too jazzed this year (between the nation's laughable covid response, fiasco after fiasco with recent primary election procedures, and ongoing racial injustice, I'm finding it hard to get too excited to celebrate the US this year). So I spent the evening with a few households that got together, ate, drank, and shot off a small assortment of fireworks. I ended up bringing some leftovers from last year and told the neighborhood kids (mostly age 6-12) they can have whichever fireworks they wanted, as long as their parents lit them for them. Eventually I ended up being in charge of lighting everything for the kids, so I was teaching them about roman candles, bottle rockets, spinners, fountains, etc. They had a blast and it really made my night to see them having so much fun. Yesterday they were still talking about how much fun they had.
Pretty mellow for the most part. In the evening we went up the hill to where we can see most of the LA basin and hung out for about an hour watching fireworks being set off around the city. It was a pretty cool site to see. Lots of smoke hung around the city all day Sunday.
Mine was depressing. Stayed up at the lake - sunny, hot, humid weather. As per usual, there is a boat parade and fireworks sponsored by a few of the more generous residents. However, three-quarter of the boats on the dozens on parade were flying giant Trump flags to supplement their American flags. The fireworks were punctuated by the house owner 5 doors down from off (who was one of the firework sponsors) goading the crowd on with "you ready for the finale? Yeah? WOOO! TRUMP 2020!". I have never in my life seen a public holiday that is supposed to unite us as Americans make me feel so excluded. I mean, I'm not naive enough to think that most of those folks up there aren't Trump supporters, but to make it that partisan left me disheartened.
The eastern shore is predominantly Repúblican so there were a bunch of Trump signs en route - they’re so completely absent hereabouts that my kids didn’t even process that we were looking at Trump signs. One boat went past on the river with a big old Trump 2020 flag which wasn’t how I’d spend my money but at least you know to give that guy a wide berth
These people really have taken on a cult-like mentality. The types who show off their hats, flags, shirts, etc. at all opportunities are really off-putting. Hey man, we're shopping for garden soil at the hardware store, not going to a campaign rally.
I don’t understand this cult mentality towards Trump at all.
I liked Obama and voted for him twice. However, I never went out and bought an Obama flag, Obama t-shirt, or any other obnoxious Obama gear to display in public so that I could “own” the conservatives.
The only two things that I own with Obama’s likeness was an Obama bobble head that I bought while in Hawaii and an Obama sticker that it received when I donated to his campaign.
It will be interesting to see what happens with Trumps cult and the GOP going forward.
We went over to the eastern shore to see my mother in law and her husband. Sat around outside (it was toasty), grilled some salmon, took a brief ride on their boat on the river. Perfectly delightful. I think it was the first time since mid March that my wife and daughters and I have all been in the car at the same time!
Mine was cool; went up on the roof deck to watch the locals set off a bunch of professional looking fireworks, shared a bottle of bourbon with my fellow tenants, engaged in banter.
I walk out the front door of my building and across the street and can see down the National Mall so saw the flyovers and fireworks. The crowd was much smaller than in other years. They anticipated it and didn't even put up the security checkpoint to get into the park across the street.
I got home Friday to a robocall from conservative gadfly and dirty trickster Jack Burkman. Something about a Robert E. Lee statue he's putting up and asking for your phone number. I tried to go to twitter to see what it's about but his account is suspended.
I'm certain that this is not what this Burkman person has in mind, but would a Robert E Lee statue specifically honoring him for the Mexican-American war effort, before he turned traitor to his country, be an acceptable compromise?
Memorials, especially of people, are intended not to valorize every single aspect of the person, but to commemorate deeds done and principles stood up for -- basically, to laud the thing the person is best remembered for.
If our standard is that we can only commemorate those things that are perfect, that admit of no flaws upon closer inspection, then we might as well tear down every statue from sea to shining sea. Is the effort and sacrifice of WWII irreparably tainted by the Japanese internment camps?
Robert E Lee isn't best remembered for his deeds during the Mexican-American war, and statues of him have never been intended to do so. Symbols can have a complicated backgrounds, but they stand as simple statements of principles, not deep explorations of every aspect of a dead man's character.
Those people who tell you there is no difference between a statue of Washington and a statue of Robert E Lee are misguided or disingenuous, and not worth our time in either case.
(Ruey, I don't believe you intended to make such an argument, I've just been bothered by the statue thing for a while and this comment set me off)
I agree with this stance. Also Re: Washington, I get that he and others owned slaves, but it's not like they invented slavery, it was the world they grew up in.
Do we have any statues up of Benedict Arnold honoring him of all the good things he did for the American colonies and colonial army before he turned treasonous?
Does the UK have any statues of Washington, Franklin, Jefferson or Madison to honor them for all the work they did for the British crown and empire prior to the American Revolution?
There is a statue of Benedict Arnold's leg at Saratoga National Historic Park to commemorate his brilliant victory at the Battle of Saratoga. It does not mention him by name, but he was wounded in the leg at that battle before he turned traitor.
Supposedly, after he defected, he asked an American POW what would happen to him if he were caught, and the American replied, "They will cut off the leg which was wounded when you were fighting so gloriously for the cause of liberty, and bury it with the honors of war, and hang the rest of your body on a gibbet."
Cal gets an apparent walk-on commit from 2020 WR. No stars. Decently fast, good quickness, and good vision but he is a dark horse due to his playing for Sacred Heart, which ran the ball a lot (very few opportunities).
